The Rock n Roll Las Vegas marathon is one of the more unorthodox
events, as despite (normally) taking place in November, one of the cooler
months, the desert location means that much of the race actually takes
place after dark, with a late afternoon start meaning runners get to
race down the famous Las Vegas Strip in the dark with all the lights
showing the way, definitely a unique race day experience! This year
there won't be a full marathon distance but there will still be a
half marathon, 10km and 5km oh, and it's in February this year!
The Vegas marathon has actually been taking place since 1967, making
it one of the oldest US marathons, but was taken under the Rock n
Roll banner in 2009 and was expanded to several days of events including
a Health and Fitness Expo, a 5k and a half marathon, with the majority
of participants actually taking part in the shorter distance events,
reflecting the fact that for many this is more about the location than
the marathon achievement.
The 2024 half marathon is on Sunday 25th February.
The main events take place as follows:
Saturday 24th:
5k race, starts at 5pm in Downtown Las Vegas and finishes on Fremont Street
Sunday 25th:
10k, starts at 4,30pm from New York New York
4.30pm -
Half marathon starts from New York New York
The full course maps for the 5k, 10k and half marathon can be found here:
The Las Vegas marathon is generally broadcast live by local Vegas TV stations so we should be able to track down a live online stream. We will post the link here as and when it becomes available.
The best we have been able to locate thus far is the Fox 5 Vegas channel, which, although not offering continuous live coverage of the whole race will certainly have regular updates from the event, and is a vailable online here:

One option you do have here is to
check out the local webcam views, the popularity of the Strip in particular
means the area is well served with live streaming cam views. Check out
the full range of options here:

Accommodation in Las Vegas is actually fairly reasonably priced compared to the main US cities, and November is one of the cheaper months so you should be able to find somewhere decent for your money if you are in town for the marathon weekend.
You can check availability and make reservations for local hotels here.
